In this episode of Tech in the Arts, Dr. Brett Ashley Crawford of the Arts Management and interviews Bill Updegraff, founder and CEO of Grapeseed Media, a programmatic digital advertising firm. Grapeseed Media, established in 2013, has grown into a trusted partner for brands and agencies in digital advertising, earning recognition on Inc.'s 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies. In this episode, Updegraff explains that Grapeseed Media's initial goal was to provide arts organizations with access to programmatic advertising, a concept he once thought was exclusive to larger corporations. The company's role has since evolved from introducing programmatic advertising to guiding clients through its complexities. He highlights three approaches to programmatic advertising: in-house management, managed service partnerships, or working with a single, agnostic programmatic partner like Grapeseed Media, which provides unbiased access to all programmatic channels and consolidated reporting. Updegraff also differentiates programmatic advertising from search and paid social media, noting that programmatic is more "open market" compared to the "walled gardens" of platforms like Google and Meta. He also discusses the growing integration of programmatic into digital out-of-home advertising, offering hyper-targeting and data collection capabilities. Of course, they also discuss the ethical uses of AI in marketing, particularly in data analysis and creative ideation.

In Slags on Stage: Class, Sex, Art and Desire in British Culture (Routledge, 2025), Katie Beswick, a Senior Lecturer in Arts Management at Goldsmiths, University of London, examines this question by analysing the figure of the ‘slag' across a range of cultural forms, including theatre and television. Alongside a history of the idea of the ‘slag', the book draws on deep case studies of key artists, including Tracey Emin, Cash Carraway and Michaela Coel to understand both the meaning of ‘slags' in British culture and how class, race and gender all intersect in Britain's unequal society. Blending memoir, poetry, close reading, and history, the book is essential reading across the arts and humanities, as well as for anyone interested in culture today. Learn more about your ad choices.

For arts organizations, the vast majority of your audience is not subscribers and donors; over 90% of your patrons are the ones who come and go, never to engage with another performance again. How can arts administrators capture that large segment of their audience base and stop the churn? Redesign the user experience. This episode, Aubrey talks with UX and product designer, Linda Hsieh Logston. She shares five steps to applying UX design to arts management. The Offstage Mic is made possible by Artelize: their Audience Retention Dashboard is the one-stop place to access your audience data across every important metric. And also by Annual Fund Toolkit: they've built a support system to help grow your donor community and major gift pipeline.

Catherine shares how she took the leap into entrepreneurship, embraced imperfection, and found joy in "building the plane while flying." We explore her approach to building genuine connections with clients, the role of faith in bridging the gap between where we are and where we want to be, and the surprising ways God collapses timelines to fulfill our dreams.

#herkesesanat #çağdaşsanat Bir pisuar sanat tarihini nasıl değiştirdi? Öncüsü Beuys'a göre her insan bir sanatçı! Yüksek ve alçak kültür arasındaki sınırı bulanıklaştıran sanat biçimi! Anlamak çok zor! ... Bilgi Üniversitesi'nden Esra Yıldız rehberliğinde çağdaş sanatla tanışıyoruz. Çağdaş sanatın ne olduğunu, önemli sanatçı ve eserleri öğreniyoruz. ... Çağdaş sanat, yüksek kültürle alçak kültür arasındaki sınırı bulanıklaştıran, salt estetikten uzak, toplumsal kaygılarla üretilen sanat biçimi. Öncülerinden Joseph Beuys'a göre, her insan bir sanatçı. Belki bu yüzden çağdaş sanatı anlamak zor! Tarihsel aralık açısından sanat tarihçileri iki döneme işaret ediyor: İlki, 2. Dünya Savaşı sonrası dönem. Milyonlarca insanın toplama kamplarında öldürülmesi ve bundan sonra artık nasıl devam edileceği sorusu. Frankfurt Okulu'nun temsilcisi Adorno'nun, “Auschwitz'ten sonra şiir yazılamaz” sözünün ardından sanatçıların yapıtlarına dikkat çekti. İkinci dönem, 1960'dan günümüze kadar devam eden dönem. Feminizm, çevre hareketlerinin yükselişi, siyah haklar hareketi, 1968'de gençlerin ve işçilerin hareketi açısından önemli dönem. Sanatçıların bunlara karşılık gelen üretimlerini görüyoruz... ... Esra Yıldız'ın çağdaş sanata örnek olarak anlattığı sanatçılar ve eserleri: “Hazır yapıt” terimini literatüre kazandıran Fransız sanatçı Marcel Duchamp - 1917'de Bağımsız Sanatçılar Sergisi'ne gönderdiği ancak reddedilen eseri “çeşme / pisuvar”, modern sanat döneminde olsa bile, çağdaş sanatın kırılma noktası kabul ediliyor. Çağdaş sanatta önemli bir yeri olan, toplumu sanat aracılığıyla şekillendirmede önemli rolü olan Alman sanatçı Joseph Beuys. Ona göre her insan bir sanatçı. Almanya'da 2. Dünya Savaşı'nda tahrip edilen ve ekolojik yapısı bozulan Kassel kentini canlandırma amacıyla yaptığı “7 bin meşe” çalışması, örnek eserlerden. Bu bölüm için seçtiği müzikler: John Cage'ten “Music for Marcel Duchamp” ve “Fontana Mix” Joseph Beuys - Sonne statt Reagan 1982 Türkiye'den örnek verdiği sanatçılar: Ayşe Erkmen - Berlin'de bir evin dış cephesindeki “mış'lı” yerleştirmesi. İstanbul'da İstiklal Caddesi'nin Tünel tarafındaki bir heykeli var. Nur Koçak, Nil Yalter ve Sarkis'in de 70'lerden itibaren öncü isimler. Filmlerin, çağdaş sanatı anlamak açısından önemini vurguladı. Agnes Varda'nın “Les Glaneurs et la glaneuse” / “Toplayıcılar ve Ben” adlı belgeselinin izlenmesini önerdi, neden önemli olduğunu anlattı. Çağdaş sanat ve felsefe ilişkisine dikkat çekti, Fransız felsefeci Jean Francois Lyotard'ın 1985'te Paris Pompidou Kültür Merkezi'ndeki sergisinin önemli olduğunu belirtti. Bu sergi için: https://www.centrepompidou.fr/en/collection/film-and-new-media/les-immateriaux-1985 Ve günümüz filozoflarından Fransız sanatçı Georges Didi-Huberman'ın halen Madrid'de devam eden sergisini işaret etti. Bu sergiyle ilgili için: https://www.museoreinasofia.es/en/exhibitions/in-the-troubled-air NEDEN ESRA YILDIZ? İstanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi Kültür ve Sanat Yönetimi Bölümünde öğretim üyesi. Lisans derecesini Çevre Mühendisliği (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, İTÜ) ve Sosyoloji (İÜ), yüksek lisans (İTÜ) ve doktora derecelerini (İTÜ) Sanat Tarihi bölümünden aldı. Doktora çalışmaları sırasında Technische Universität Berlin'de bulundu. Doktora sonrası çalışmalarını Berlin Humboldt Üniversitesi ve Paris EHESS'te sürdürdü. Critical Arts, African Arts, International Journal of Arts Management gibi dergilerde, Routledge, Intellect, İstanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi Yayınları gibi yayınevlerinden çıkan kitaplarda akademik çalışmaları, makaleleri yayınlanıyor. Akademik çalışmalarının yanı sıra, Sayfalar Arasında Bir Gölge: Sahaf Vahan (2010) ve Vatansız (2021) belgesel filmlerinin yönetmeni.

He gave us the scoop on what Arts Management professionals do and how the industry has changed after COVID, as well as details about The Washington Chorus, its mission, upcoming season, importance and who to become a singing member.

Data is one of the most powerful tools you can use in arts management to increase patron retention. But how do you know which metrics to track? How do you find the time to stay on top of key performance indicators? Over several years of experience, from my first job at the Seattle Symphony to becoming an executive director and developing the 'Long Haul Model', I can now identify the main, underlying problem most arts organizations run into when thinking about their data. And I brought in some folks to help me talk about it. In this bonus episode, I interview special guests Sune Hjerrild and Jan Pilgaard Carlsen, co-founders of Artelize, a company that eats, sleeps, and breathes using data in the arts. We talk about how to harness your data to retain more patrons, what key metrics are important to monitor to know if your retention efforts are working, and why most CRMs make patron retention challenging, either because extracting the data and reports you need is tricky, or because it just takes too much time — and what to do about it to make it a million times faster.Tracking and understanding your data doesn't have to be a pitfall for your organization. Enjoy this special bonus episode to carry you through until the podcast starts again this fall.Resources:The Long Haul Model articleRethinking Audience Engagement Panel Hosted by Artelize
